just ordered a hx650 for 100euros.. good price for a 7 year warranty. will test at night. The screen i got 2 times was black with gray stripes if that helpso_O and the sound from ingame was keep coming. Also got a crash running intelburntest yesterday at 4.1 so i guess its the cpu overclock...

Btw From anyone's experience what are the first symptoms of a not adequate PSU?

Yes, both prime95 (not for long time) and intelburntest for the cpu, have a corsair h60 cooler on it, everything normal. Furmark for gpu also. Also is there a possibility using a single dimm instead of dual channel have an effect on the overclock? i currently have a single 8gb dimm which i...

still would a crash from gpu restart the pc? from the little experience i have a pc is randomly shutting down and restart with no bsod either because the psu is stuck with tons of dust (not my case) or PSU is not able to keep up. Propably not the only reasons but its the first thing that comes...

hello, i have a corsair builder series 430w v2 psu. recently i upgraded to an i5 3570k together with a 7850. Trying to overclock my cpu a bit using an asus p8z77-m (4,1GHz with auto tuner) and my gpu (950MHz and a memory bump on stock Voltage) i ran some random restarts and black screen...

anyway thanks for your help, will try a thing or two and see

hmm havent thought plugging the sound card in 16x, soundcard works in the slot upper than the 16x. the 1x one. But even then it wont reproduce the problem with pci-e 3.0. Not sure myself but with pure logic wouldnt the chips on graphics card responsible for the pci-e 2.0 signal be the same as...

im guessing there is no way i can check the pci-e status of the 7850 myself. my drivers or something then. most possible explanation for the issue is faulty 7850 as you say i guess. any way to notice any signes of faulty cpu? guess im stuck

unfortunatly i dont have another graphics card available, also what i didnt mention is that the xonar dx in the pci-e 1.0 slot is working well with both cpus. dont know how this might be relevant however. Also can i rule out a possible PSU problem since one cpu is 65w and the other 77w tdp?

is it possible 7850 to run in pci-e 2.0 with i5 3570k? even if it wasnt able to run in pci-e 3.0 wouldnt working in pci-e 2.0 with g620 make it run anyways (since pci-e 3.0 is compartible with 2.0)

thnaks for the answer. the 7850 is working on the exact same pc with g620 instead of 3570k, thats confirms my initial concern that the cpu must be faulty or something, but can a cpu be faulty only in the pci lanes section? Im having a normal performance from the cpu and 4000 graphics.

Hello, Im having a big issue after yesterdays upgrade, I was running a Sandy Bridge Pentium g620 with Intel DH77EB M/B and Asus 7850 Graphics, Corsair Builder 430w v2. I decided to order a I5 3570k the other day and yesterday that i picked it up after installing the cpu the 7850 doesnt seem to...
